Stunning beauty, the hero of Collapse is happy again

Chapter 221 Sister-in-law, open the door. I am his brother (20)

These days, Xie Jinyi found that she could not contact Ruan Guannan. There was no reply to her messages and no one answered her phone calls.

If he still couldn't figure out what she meant, Xie Jinyi would have lived all these years in vain.

When she said give her some time to think about it, did she mean to think about how to get rid of him?

Xie Jinyi felt depressed.

However, thinking of her gentle and docile nature, he did act in a rather out-of-line way in her opinion, and he was reluctant to force her, so he could only calm down and deal with his own affairs first.

That day, Xie Jinyi had just finished his work when he received a call from Lu Chi, who wanted to invite him out for dinner.

Xie Jinyi agreed without thinking too much.

But when he entered the box and saw the person sitting obediently next to Lu Chi, Xie Jinyi suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

He sat opposite the two of them calmly, with an obscure emotion in his dark eyes. He endured not looking to the side, raised his head and looked directly at Lu Chi, and said in a deep voice:

"Why did you think of treating me to a meal?"

Lu Chi smiled and poured him a glass of wine, handing it to him, casually but with a hint of seriousness.

"Last time, brother, I have to thank you for protecting her. Not to mention a meal, if you need anything in the future, just tell me, I will definitely not refuse."

After saying that, Lu Chi drank a large cup of wine in one gulp very happily. What he said was not superficial but came from the heart. He was really grateful to Xie Jinyi for protecting Ruan Guannan last time.

Brother Xie and Ruan Guannan are not familiar with each other, and the reason why he protects her so much is most likely because of his face, so he should repay this favor.

Xie Jinyi took the glass of wine in silence, but his eyes were fixed on Ruan Guannan without blinking, and suddenly he smiled softly.

"Is this also your thank you meal?"

Ruan Guannan bit his lip, his eyelashes trembling slightly, but he still looked back at him and said seriously:

"Yes, we are all very grateful to Mr. Xie."

She knew clearly that he was referring to the promise to treat him to a meal in the hospital, and she had thought that she would have time to thank him alone.

But ever since the incident in the dressing room, Ruan Guannan had no way of facing him alone.

She didn't know why she took the initiative to get close to him that day.

Thinking about it afterwards, it might be that she was stimulated by Lu Chi and Lin Pianpian, or it might be that Xie Jinyi was too gentle that day, which made her unable to help but be briefly lost.

But when she regained her senses, she felt extremely upset.

She thought about it seriously for several days and didn't want things to reach an irreversible point, so the scene with Lu Chi happened today.

She thought, there was no need for her to say it directly, Xie Jinyi would always understand what she meant, right?

Xie Jinyi did understand, but understanding didn't mean he wasn't in pain, especially when he saw her eager to draw a line between them, Xie Jinyi felt like his heart was being cut by a knife.

He lowered his eyes and stopped looking at her, drinking one cup after another with Lu Chi.

Ruan Guannan was frightened by their attitude and wanted to speak up to dissuade them, but after opening his mouth, no words came out. He simply pretended not to see and let them be.

By the end of the drinking, both of them were a little confused.

There was no other way, Ruan Guannan could only laboriously help the two men to Lu Chi’s car one after another, and then she drove the two drunks back.

In the car, although the two people in the back seat were drunk, at least they didn't make any trouble. They just leaned back in their chairs quietly with their eyes closed to rest, which made her couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Xie Jinyi in the back seat moved uncomfortably, raised his leg and kicked Lu Chi, saying in a hoarse voice:

"Lu Chi, I want to duel with you!"

Lu Chi was somewhat awakened by this kick, and he cursed stumblingly:

"I'm crazy and I'm approaching you to let you hit me? Get out of here."

Xie Jinyi covered his forehead with his hands. He had drunk too much just now and was a little tipsy and had lost his composure.

He looked at the man in the rearview mirror with a dazed look in his eyes, and his voice became even hoarse.

"Lu Chi, I want to break up with you. From now on, we are not brothers. We...can't be brothers..."

Unfortunately, Lu Chi had already passed out drunk and did not hear his words of "severing ties of friendship".

But Ruan Guannan was frightened by his "drunk words" and broke into a cold sweat. She subconsciously looked up at the rearview mirror, but met his deep and obscure eyes. The thick ink color surging in them seemed to drag Ruan Guannan into an endless abyss.

She subconsciously withdrew her gaze, and when she looked again, Xie Jinyi had fallen asleep with his eyes closed, as if the wakefulness just now was just an illusion of Ruan Guannan.

They arrived at the entrance of the villa smoothly. Ruan Guannan first sent Lu Chi back to his room, and then turned back to send another unconscious drunk home.

She drove a short distance forward and when she parked the car in front of his house, Ruan Guannan helped the person out with great effort. Just as she was about to ring the doorbell, she was suddenly held tightly by a hand.

Ruan Guannan was startled and subconsciously turned her head to look over, and found that the man who was originally drunk and unconscious was now staring at her without blinking, as if he wanted to stare her through.

While she was stunned, Xie Jinyi hugged her and turned around, taking her into a cramped and hidden corner. He held her wrist tightly and just stared at her with his eyes downcast.

Ruan Guannan was stunned by his sudden action. After a moment's pause, he asked in a trembling voice:

"Xie Jinyi, what are you doing? Let me go!"

Xie Jinyi took a deep breath and let her go.

Without waiting for Ruan Guannan to escape, Xie Jinyi quickly put his hands on the wall to block her way.

He has a tall and slender figure, with long arms and legs, so it is very easy for him to trap a petite person without touching her.

Ruan Guannan looked up at him and unexpectedly met his deep eyes. He was completely enveloped by the overwhelming affection in his eyes.

She subconsciously wanted to escape, but Xie Jinyi took advantage of his drunkenness to become overbearing and did not allow her to escape.

Xie Jinyi leaned over to look at her level, and looked back and forth several times, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance deeply in his mind to offset the pain and unbearable love in his heart.

He wanted to wait until everything was settled before expressing his feelings, but Ruan Guannan's estrangement was a heavy blow to him, completely shattering the steadiness and composure that he had always been proud of.

Looking at her constantly dodging eyes, Xie Jinyi didn't want to endure it any longer. He couldn't stand Ruan Guannan turning a blind eye to his feelings, and he couldn't stand her wanting to draw a line between them.

"Ruan Guannan."

Xie Jinyi's voice was more serious and solemn than ever before.

"I like you."

He stared at her closely, and the depression and expectation in his eyes seemed to be transmitted to her heart through his beautiful eyes.

Ruan Guannan stared at him blankly, his face flushed with shame because of his confession, his lips opened and closed for a long time, and then he spoke awkwardly:

"Thank you... Mr. Xie, please stop talking drunkenly. Let's get out of here quickly."

After hearing her "rejection", Xie Jinyi was much calmer than he thought, and asked in a deep voice:

"You know I'm serious. I'm already preparing for a divorce. You and Lu Chi, you should have seen what happened between him and Lin Pianpian. Your union was also wrong. Why can't you accept me?"

Ruan Guannan looked at him in shock and saw that there was no anger on his face that other men would have when they were thinking about their wives, but only calmness.

Xie Jinyi curled his lips and smiled, and said softly:

"I don't like her, but I'm willing to help her and Lu Chi. Don't you want them to be together?"

Ruan Guannan lowered his head and remained silent.

Xie Jinyi felt a pain in his heart, and his voice became even hoarser, "Is it because of Lu Chi? Are you in love with him?"

Without waiting for Ruan Guannan to answer, he muttered to himself:

"Yes, you already like him, otherwise you wouldn't have taken the initiative to marry him, right?"

Ruan Guannan pursed his lips and glared at him unhappily.

"Are you investigating me?"

But even her glare was gentle and without any offensive power. Xie Jinyi smiled bitterly.

"I just want to know more about you. If I knew that you married him because you liked him, I would rather die than know. It would be a sin for you."

……

Brother Xie put on the mask of pain, and from then on, he had eight hundred more thoughts in his heart...
